Surgery fund for Sudhakar: a craniotomy in Coimbatore

After endometriosis requiring surgery, Sudhakar was cleared for a craniotomy, but the bill is more than we can manage.

Coimbatore
Sudhakar was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in March. The surgeon at Coimbatore Community Hospital recommended a craniotomy, and He is scheduled for June. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $1,250, and after what my employer's plan will pay we're still $750 short. my son has been in and out of Coimbatore Community Hospital since March. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without a craniotomy. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $1,250 is more than we can find. While we wait, Sudhakar struggles with daily life and can't drive. His family has taken turns caring for him, and I've cut my own work hours to be there. The recovery period is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Sudhakar won't be able to drive, so the costs keep growing. I'll pay the hospital and pharmacy directly and post every receipt in the updates section. Where the $750 goes: • Physiotherapy sessions: $85 • Surgeon and anesthesia fees: $600 • Post-operative medication: $50 • Travel and lodging for the family: $15 I hope life is good to you.

      Rooting for you, Mythili. Your post was clear and honest. After 11 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Bristol.

          Praying for you. Shared it with a few friends. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.

            Thinking of you. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Wish I lived closer to Narayanganj so I could bring a meal. All the best.

              Hope it all works out, Mythili. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope June is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Coimbatore

                Thinking of you, Mythili. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Coimbatore.
